I have a long history of lower back pain and I have to say that this Shovelution is a back saver. I love it. It is very well made, easy to assemble, excellent material used.
The little metal tip broke off the edge within minutes similar to other review I read but it’s pretty pointless anyway. Shovel works great and definitely takes so strain off the back.
See Title.....however, the “primary” shaft is a bit too short. I am just over 5’ 10”. Also the “primary” shaft could/should swivel via the lower handle grip, and that lower grip could/should be “adjustable”, up or down to accommodate user physical uniqueness.
No More Back Pain/Strain, I'm over 70, a disabled VET and this shovel, makes it much easier to move snow, Wish they would have come up with this design YEARS ago. Love this Shovel.
My husband is 91 years old, really shouldn’t be shoveling snow, but it’s a guy thing I guess. Broke his hip a little over a year ago, has a bad back. Loves the ease of show shovel. Shoveled our driveway, sidewalk and the neithbor’s too. His back is not hurting like it would with a regular shovel. Plans to bowl tomorrow after shoveling.
Shovel is shorter and scoop is smaller than my other shovel...but with the added handle...the shovel doesn't have to be as big and heavy any more! the snow really does fly off the shovel - love it - and most importantly - my back loves it too!
